He’s smart enough to routinely outwit his fans by luring them in to toot his horn during the most idle moments, so these exaggerated assertions that Jay-Z is the owner of Jackson's Maybach Exelero &amp; Hublot Big Bang Watch are nothing but well-orchestrated illusions that many of you naively promote and buy into. The same holds true for Jay-Z’s claims to own a firearm, a private jet, Roc-A-Wear, Roc-A-Fella Records, Armand de Brignac, the Brooklyn Nets and Beyoncé Knowles….. nothing but a sensational trompe l’oeil.</p>XiXiHammadTue, 11 Feb 2014 06:16:39 -0000Re: Ascari A10http://firm-guide.com/company/ascari-cars-ltd/cars/2006-ascari-a10/#comment-1237823625<p>since when did people start putting Prancing Horses on the front of Ferrari Red Ascari cars ... in the words of Sesame Street ...

It's easier to believe that (Jackson) a wealthy and inconspicuous 49-year old economist &amp; diamond mogul owns this car, than it is to foolishly get sucked in by two 44-year old, attention-hungry, corporate-owned rappers claiming ownership. Every insider knows that (both) Birdman and Jay-Z are wearing diamonds in their videos that came out of Jackson's vault. In addition to that, Jay-Z was given permission to drive Jackson's car in the "Lost One" video (December 2006) only after he performed in Angola one month earlier (November 2006). Jay not only left Angola with cash for the gig he did, but he also left with rough diamonds and a signed affidavit authorizing him to use Jackson's car during the video shoot.</p>R.

That's a game that really did a lot of things right and was ahead of its time, maybe way too ahead of its time. It's just too bad is was mismanaged as poorly as it was, and it was done so in a way that many other online properties have been mismanaged as well, it just made ever mistake right off the bat out of beta before MMO's became the norm.</p><p>I think the major place we disagree is that there should be a such thing as "mmo elements". I think it really pigeon holes the platform of playing multiplayer games massively in that people expect certain game mechanics just because a game is called an MMO. Sure those mechanics worked well for EQ and WoW, but the problem we have is that people think that this is the only way that these games can work, and that's simply not true and consumers want something different. From the hands on experience we've been getting from the beta events, the hotbar works just like WoW without as many options to make it kinda/sorta feel like a proper Elder Scrolls game. They still have global cool down, spells and abilities can and do appear there even if they are fewer and number, and hot keying items and equipment has been available in the Elder Scrolls games without the need of a menu at the bottom, so it's been possible to fully play the game without pausing the action since at least Oblivion.</p><p>Games like Neocron and Planetside 2 demonstrate that you can have a massively multiplayer game without having to work within the bounds of setting global cool down and run everything in true real time. Yeah, it's harder, but not impossible. The problems with hotbars and global cooldown is that they take weight away from the player's actions. Once implemented, the player has every incentive to simply spam the button to maximize whatever output the global cooldown which means in reality they are simply fighting in a turned based situation, it's just that the turns are really fast. This is apposed to a truly real time process like a first person shooter uses to determine who shot first when, which is far closer to how Elder Scrolls games feel in terms of gameplay.</p><p>As far as class progression, this is something that's subject to change all over the place but so far it looks like you will be limited in your total progression, which is meant to incentivise you to pick a role. Even if the system feels as open as a normal Elder Scrolls game, in practice it won't likely be because of two reasons. One, you don't have a large enough maximum pool of points to spread out everywhere and be effective, so you are going to have to pick a niche. This is the one most subject to change as this was sort of true in Skyrim as well until the expansion, but the game still allowed you to be a jack of all trades and you could manage, which is arguable how going the jack of all trades route should work anyway.</p><p>In this case someone who tries to play the game exactly like they've played every Elder Scrolls game and uses some of the Restoration spells when they need them and uses some of the attack spells when needed, then switches to the bow, then switches to melee is going to end up having a bad time because at some point they are going to be greatly outpaced by their comrades who made their characters like WoW characters and stuck with one or two things. Then they are going to hit a brick wall and they'll have to reroll, which is something you've never needed to do in an Elder Scrolls game before. If in Oblivion, where the difficulty could be punishing because the whole world leveled up with you, you felt like you were lagging behind in an area like defense, you could then go and train that skill in a more or less realistic fashion and try again without having to start your whole character over. That's not likely going to be an option this time around, though it may be in the future if they raise whatever the caps are, but I doubt they will honestly.</p><p>The other major way the game doesn't appear to be designed to handle character building like a traditional Elder Scrolls games is that encounters seem to demand that you have the staple healer, ranged DPS, tank, and so forth roles that RPGs have had since pen and paper Dungeons and Dragons. There might not be much of a way around this, as even if you just added co-op to Skyrim directly people would likely fall into these roles naturally, but what I fear is that because encounters are specifically designed for this kind of party loadout it will further discourage any kind of "outside the box" character building. What's worse is that because the game, like you said, looks like you can build non-traditional characters using the Skyrim method, people are going to fall into the trap of thinking they can build a character the way they want and when it simply isn't functional they'll get frustrated. Diablo 2 actually had this problem in a big way, as the game itself never went out of its way to inform the player that they only had a limited amount of skill points, and worse some skills were useless while others were overpowered so there were only a small set of viable builds that you had no idea about. So you'd end up having to recreate your character dozens of times until you made your character essentially no different from anyone else's, thus robbing you of any individuality and wasting tons of your time.</p><p>But hey, some of these things can be avoided and even fixed if they were daring. The problem is that they don't look like they are really that daring, we had to fight just to get first person perspectives back in the game for goodness sake so there's not a lot of faith out there. If they were daring they would have grabbed the Planetside 2 engine to do this thing properly and probably got more of the lore stuff right which a whole other issue I haven't even touched upon.</p>ZTFreemanThu, 23 Jan 2014 13:13:07 -0000
